Evidence that Charles Darwin was not an atheist!

Posted by simon peter sutherland in new atheism, Science and evolution on October 6, 2012

In his own words, Charles Darwin did not reject belief in a god!

“It seems to me absurd to doubt that a man may be an ardent Theist & an evolutionist. … In my most extreme fluctuations I have never been an atheist in the sense of denying the existence of a God. I think that generally (& more and more so as I grow older) but not always, that an agnostic would be the most correct description of my state of mind.”

Charles Darwin
Letter to John Fordyce, 7 May 1879
